You should be able to do a restore from your last restore point (hoping you are doing restore points). I have used this many times to recover from a failed upgrade.

CUBASE CRASHES ON QUITTING THE APPLICATION

Problem

If Cubase crashes on closing, in some cases it is caused by a third party plug-in but in some other cases it is caused by Automap (Novation) wrapped plug-ins.

Solution

1.Uninstall Automap

2. Delete the Cubase AutomapClient.dll should be installed in the following location;

Windows 32-bits:
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Cubase\Components
Windows 64-bits:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\Cubase\Components

3. Manually delete all of the wrapped plug-ins pluginname.dll from both the 64-bit VST folders and 32-bit VST folders to solve this issue. On Windows 7 these folders are usually located here:

VST2 Windows 32-bits:
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Cubase 6\VSTPlugins
C:\Program Files\Common Files(Manufacturer name)

VST2 Windows 64-bits:
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Cubase 6\VSTPlugins
C:\Program Files\Common Files(Manufacturer name)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\VstPlugins
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\Cubase 6\VSTPlugins
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files(Manufacturer name)

VST3 Windows 32-bits:
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Cubase 6\VST3
C:\Program Files\Common Files\vst3(Manufacturer name)(Plug-in)

VST3 Windows 64-bits:
C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Cubase 6\VST3
C:\Program Files\Common Files\vst3(Manufacturer name)(Plug-in)
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steinberg\Cubase 6\VST3
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\vst3(Manufacturer name)(Plug-in)

4. Reinstall the Automap 4.4 beta 4 (or later) then re-register all of your plug-ins and create new pluginname.dll files.

After uninstalling and reinstalling, the problem should be resolved.

Please be aware that even after following the above steps, the instability problems when exiting Cubase will immediately reappear as soon as you install a new plug-in and re-wrap it using Automap 4 setup. To avoid that, please run through the above steps each time you want to add a new plug-in to Automap.

As an additional suggestion you might want to untick “Follow on screen Plug-In where possible” in Automap preferences too. There is an issue in Automap that causes Cubase 6.5 and above to crash when switching between multiple wrapped VSTs.

Thanks a lot , appreciate it sm

I’m not sure if I need to upgrade anything to 6.5.5, since I am not using elastique.

Honestly I am more concerned with how I’m getting from here to 7.

It does not seem feasible to stay 6.6.6 for ever and ever, we know that mixer is not leaving.

But 6.5.5 does not contain any fixes for Elastique !

[mr.roos]

mepayne0, you may be right about Steinberg hanging themselves with that mixer. But then again, they might actually listen to the many objections to it and change it. Unlike fixing elastic or Variaudio, a seemingly impossible task for Steinberg in this century, the fix for the C7 mixer already exists in the C6.5 program.

Wild speculation here (perhaps), but imagine a future world where young people wanting to create music ditch Cubase for the likes of Garage Band, Reaper, and Fruity Loops - all for the lack of a simple to use and easy to understand mixer? Is that day already here?

Are you being sarcastic? I am not sure, but I’m not looking to move from my one and only DAW. nor am I looking 5 years from now to be stuck on 6.5.

That’s my point. It was a thought out loud to a few people that I think might relate.

[mr.roos]

Well rereading your post and what you just wrote, I’m more confused. Haha!

What exactly were/are you saying?

Me, I was saying that I hope that Steinberg DOES change the mixer in C7 somewhere down the road and that I don’t see the mixer in C7 as a static thing. Especially if becomes the sole reason why future buyers of DAW software might avoid Cubase…

[curteye]

WOW!

The C7 mixer issue even appears in a C6.5.5 final update thread.

Something is going on.

Anyway back on topic:
For me C6.5.5 is as stable as 6.5.4.
with no new probs.

unwilling to disturb this topic , i have started a new thread , though its relative some how .

C6.5.5 Crash, Novatation communication

for Novation Users who face C 6.5.5 update crash due to Novation , may there might be some help from Novation after all , My communication with them is there , sm

[DaDa]

Yep, 6.5.5 working flawless, here too.

[Arjan_P]

I haven’t yet installed 6.5.5, but this is reassuring - though I had no doubts about this final update.

Now, since I left the C7 forums since it came out, what exactly is the ‘C7 Mixer Issue’? After it just came out I believe everybody was quite excited about it… I decided to skip C7 anyway, since it has not enough to offer over 6.5 for my needs.
